Spam, or unsolicited email is becoming a major problem to business, wasting hours of employees time and an annoyance at home - like those telemarketing phone calls we all love. Unscrupulous marketeers have degraded the open and honest nature of the internet's email system to try and sell you something or obtain your personal information.

S-FORMS has recently become a reseller for DigiPortal Software Inc of Florida (see link on right) who make an email firewall system called ChoiceMail®. This program sits between your email client and your ISP email server. It issues 'challenges' to unknown senders who can easily identify themselves (when legitimate) and be added automatically to your 'safe' senders list. It blocks 100% of spam unlike junk mail filters and after the first week or so of operation needs minimal attention.

How do we help fight spam? We can come to your computer, install ChoiceMail®, configure it and instruct you in its use for a fee dependant on how many email accounts, machines and different users you have. Contact Us for more information.

My own experience with spam. I was getting 90 emails a day from 4 domain email address and one Hotmail. The outlook junk filter probably caught 2/3 of this along with the occasional email that I wanted to receive. In the first week ChoiceMail® collected and dealt with approx 600 junk and allowed the 50 or so legit emails into my inbox. This is how it should be! If we all use a challenge-based email system spammers will disappear from the internet. (Leo Cummins)
